I flagged Andre's mail with the link that shows the names of the main window's parts, it might be useful in the future.

It will be marked as unread for minutes, hours, days, month and not automagically become unread, as long as I don't switch between mails or folders. Ok, the mail is "opened" by the preview pane since 10 minutes and it kept being unread and now I empty trash, so there's no reason to mark the mail read. Now the bomb drops, while it was marked as read for previews tests, it now won't be marked as read anymore, neither at 10 seconds, nor at 1.5 seconds. The behavior seems to changes randomly, like the mouse wheel issue does too. So it doesn't make sense to test what happens, if I close the preview pane now, I'm doing it anyway. The mail at the moment stays unread, does not change to read. :S Regards, Ralf _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
